</p><div>Hi Steve,</div><div> </div><div>My understanding is you can fit standard valves and save yourself @£120</div><div> </div><div>R wheels I believe fit all models whilst this is not the same going the other way, and if you ceramics this may limit your wheels options ...</div><div> </div><div>regards, Paul</div>
 
The wheels have new tyres already fitted as part of the sale... But im assuming when i come to replace the tryes next time i can just get standard tyres (pointless having TMS if car has no TMS system)<br><br><br>
 
The ceramic brakes cause clearance issues so you can only have the ceramic alloys with ceramic brakes I think. Apart from this the wheels are pretty interchangeable. The wheels I wanted were on an S at the time and were swapped onto my R with no dramas
 
They should fit just fine. Same size and offsets as Jaguars other F-Type 20 inch wheels. No harm in leaving the TPMS valves on if they come with them but you could swap for standard valves if you wish given that your F-Type doesn't have TPMS.<br /><br />Enjoy your new wheels.
